We at Dennis Union Church are pleased to make our Sanctuary and our staff available to you and your family during this time of sadness. You do not have to be a member of Dennis Union Church to have a Memorial Service in our sanctuary.
We offer these guidelines to help you make some necessary decisions at this time:
Scheduling the use of the Sanctuary: Prior to making any arrangements, please contact the Church office at 508-385-3543 to arrange for a time for the service. This will assure that the Sanctuary and a clergy member will be available to meet your needs.
Funeral or Memorial Service? During a Funeral Service the casket is present, and the Funeral Home will contact the Church to make arrangements for the service. During a Memorial Service the urn of ashes may be present, if desired. The service may be scheduled shortly after death or at the convenience of the family.
Music: If you would like organ or piano music at the service, you may make arrangements and plan the music with our Music Director and Organist.
The Service: the pastor will meet with you to discuss the service and its components, including any specific requests the family might have in terms of readings and speakers.
A Reception Afterwards. If the family would like to have a reception afterwards at Dennis Union Church in the fellowship hall, that may be arranged subject to availability.
